Wonders Never Cease

 A glimpse of today's wonders and it's not even half-past morning yet!!

Ah, wonders never cease

Where trouble’s ways increase

Still nature’s tides release

Ripples of constant awe

As seasons overflow

The banks of Bygone’s woe

With love’s breath-taking show

(Love is the Giver’s law)

Wonder with fresh surprise

Ignites a thousand sighs

It delights our eyes

With beauty’s blessing-feast

Then lift thine drooping head

Mercy does not forget

Wonder’s buffet is spread

On north, south, west and east

Yes, wonders never cease

Midst constant chaos, peace

Where flowers, hills and trees

And innocence and such

Fill hearts with joyful praise

For life’s most common days

Never cease to amaze

Beneath the master’s touch

The woodland’s tranquil path

Winter’s green aftermath

The faithful autograph

Of sunrise-riven lease

Where Mercy is renewed

Where hope is bloom-imbued

Where grace stirs gratitude

Where wonders never cease

Psalm 40:4-5

 Blessed is the man who has made the LORD his trust, 

who has not turned to the proud, 

nor to those who lapse into falsehood.

Many, O LORD my God, are the wonders You have done, 

 and the plans You have for us— 

none can compare to You— 

if I would proclaim and declare of them, 

they are more than could be numbered.
